5 Ridiculous Things that Married Couples Fight About

3. To cuddle or not to cuddle.

All you cuddlers out there are excited about this one, aren’t you?  Married people should cuddle from time to time, but the frequency and cuddle-style can greatly differ from person to person.  This discrepancy can cause some arguments.  This is one of those things that will take some compromise from both spouses.  Those who are more affectionate may need a little more cuddle time, but too much cuddling can wear on those who feel suffocated by it.

For example, in our home, Dave is the cuddler.  I like some cuddling, but prolonged cuddling feels too binding to me.  Crazy, right?  But, I know I’m not alone in this sentiment.  I can’t cuddle all night long because I move a lot when I sleep.

So, what do we do?  We meet in the middle.  I cuddle some with Dave before we go to bed, and then he gives me the space that I need to go to sleep.  It’s honestly become this big joke between us, but we both have our needs met without fight or any tension between us.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness…
